First Agar Grow Not too great
    #26431024 - 01/13/20 10:42 AM (4 years, 1 month ago)

My first agar grow is not quite the yield I was hoping for. I have had better results with spore syringes.

I know my grow conditions are good as previous 2 tubs were very good flushes and they were from MS Syringes.

Any ideas of what is wrong or is this most likely poor genetics?
These are golden teachers, some of the caps are large, fat stems but fairly short overall.

Agar doesnt improve your yield persay but it does help eliminate contamination such as bacteria which can help provide bigger yields...


If you want more consistently large yields the I think you gotta clone high producing fruits and keep growing conditions optimal... noone is going to be able to tell you why your agar grow wasn't what you wanted.

Also ms to agar to grains is basically still MS as far as genetic variation goes as far as I understand...

Got pics of the agar plates or spawn that made these tubs?

Yes this was a clone using Agar.

I did not use syringes or syringes to agar at all on the tub in the photo.

The syringes were only used in a previous grow, which had a better yield than my agar grow.

I’ve only done ms myself and have never been disappointed.

I’ve got my first three shoebox clones almost done colonizing I’m curious to see how they do.

What did you clone? A cluster or a big shroom? What flush?

Hmm that is weird then I just assumed this was ms cleaned up on agar...super weird how theres both mature fruits and young pins there at the same time...

I haven't grown clones yet either but i thought cloned fruits were atleast suppose have a uniform pinset with most appearing and developing at a similar rate.

I cloned flush 2 or 3 I believe. It was a larger mushroom, I cant remember if it was in a cluster or not.

I think the tubs were dry and not enough moisture in the substrate. I have another tub of the same clone going to fruit shortly so we will see how that goes.

I did notice the substrate seemed dry during colonization and I kept misting it, but possibly not enough misting.  Keep in mind I am in a super dry climate, outdoor humidity right now is probably around 15-20% if that.
